Council member Lewis introduces bill to expand pay-equity reporting for city contractors
Summary
Council member Lewis introduced Intro. 1161 to amend the Administrative Code to expand reporting and analysis of pay and employment equity data for city contractors, aiming to capture more of the city workforce in oversight data.
Council member Lewis introduced Intro. 1161 at the Jan. 8 New York City Council charter meeting, a proposal to amend the Administrative Code to expand reporting and analysis of pay and employment equity data for city contractors.
Council member Lewis said the bill would extend the city’s pay-equity reporting to “previously unprotected and overlooked classes of employees” and ensure that more of the city’s workforce is captured in year-round data, enabling “robust oversight” and steps toward closing pay gaps across racial, ethnic and gender lines.
Intro. 1161, as described by Lewis, would amend the Administrative Code of the City of New York to require broader collection and reporting of pay and employment information from contractors working for the city; the transcript contains no procedural vote or adoption at the Jan. 8 meeting.
Council member Lewis urged colleagues to support the measure but did not state a filing number beyond “Intro. 1161” or indicate committee referral beyond the standard referral to committee on introduction.
